Does vaginal thrush smell?
Vaginal thrush doesn’t usually have a strong or bad smell. It causes a white, cottage cheese-like discharge to leak from the vagina, which may smell sweet or slightly yeasty. A strong, fishy, or foul odour coming from your vagina is more common with other infections, such as bacterial vaginosis (BV) or trichomoniasis.
